Don't Forget Yourself - First Transmission
Lyrics by Everett Louis
--
Time is running, don’t forget yourself
You can hear the big clock ticking
Don’t you let yourself down
“Are you made of straw? Or are you made of something stronger?”
Don’t overlook yourself now
Don’t you forget yourself now
Train is leaving, but you don’t know where it stops
Try to make it to the right place but you never felt so lost
Are you made of doubt or are you made of something greater?
Go on and trust yourself
Don’t you forget yourself now
Don’t let your mind play wicked games on you
Or let the world tell you your name won’t do
You are a wonder, one like no other
So don’t you ever lose sight of you
When there’s so much worry but there’s really nothing wrong
When you know the music playing but you can’t recall the song
When you’re frozen shut, as if the world is staring at you
Go on and set yourself free, no one can tell you who to be
Know you’re not alone, no need to ever feel that way again
Love and faith and trust, go on let them in
You are more than gold. You are so much more than priceless
Don’t overlook yourself
Don’t you forget yourself now
Don’t let your mind play wicked games on you
Or let the world tell you your name won’t do
You are a wonder, one like no other
So don’t you ever lose sight of you
Lay your burdens down and give yourself a rest
All the best are broken - All the perfect are a mess
You’re not meant to be
crafted by another
Go on and make yourself
Don’t you forget yourself now

A painful, hopeful, beautiful song (trigger warning suicide mention)
